Well, I think I'm headed to tech school. Honda PACT program at Dunwoody and then an apprenticeship at a Honda dealer... if I could work on my car every day, I would, so why not work on somebody else and get paid 
There's more money being a mechanic than in graphic design/photography. I may be a mechanic for 10 years or so and see where that takes me, if I'm still working at a dealer or something, I'm gonna go back to school for photography and hopefully travel and make money.
I can't stand being a cube monkey on a computer all day.

The PACT program is 84 weeks and only 60% of my education to be a tech. I'd rather be in love with my job, than make tons of money. I've already found that out.
I need something that pays more than this job so I can put money away for a degree or something. Plus, diesel mechanics make around $80k a year, which is definitely doable.
